Chapter 2
"uhmm, hey you guys
"uhmm, hey you guys. I'm guessing that one of you is my roommate?" I asked wearily. I searched into the small, black haired girl's mind.
Is she really a vampire? She smells like one but I have never seen one sleep. Maybe she's just a human after all. OMGZZ I have a roommate!! We need to be planning things now. Shopping, hair, makeup, gossip. . .
I was laughing in my head. She would be fun to live with. The girl started to bounce on the balls of her feet with a huge smile spread across her perfect face. Next to her was a tall, blonde male who was stretching his arm so that it was holding the small girl's waist.
Alice is getting so excited. I could feel her happiness, joy, and curiosity from across the campus. There now she should calm down.
And she did. The small pixie girl, Alice, visibly relaxed just then. He can control emotions…cool.
"Alice, it's nice to meet you. I'm your new roommate, Bella Swan. It's great to finally meet you." I said, breaking the silence. They all looked awe-struck.
"How did you know I was Alice? Can you see the future too?" She could see the future? Awesome. My gifts were going to look insignificant to theirs.
"No, sorry. He was thinking about you and mentioned your name." I replied, gesturing to the tall blonde male. "What are all your names?" I was trying to be sociable to my new roommate and her friends. I would have to live with them until I got picked up by Eleanor and John after all. They must have remembered their manners then because they all stood up straight and introduced each other. I learned that the blonde male was named Jasper and how he was Alice's boyfriend. Rosalie was the drop-dead gorgeous blonde that made me want to go get plastic surgery, even though it wouldn't work on my granite skin. Emmet was the burly, large muscled male who was also Rosalie's boyfriend.
The most handsome guy ever introduced himself. He had an auburn color of hair and perfect bone structure and muscles that made his body look amazing. Realizing that I hadn't listened to his name, I stopped ogling and said, "Excuse me, I must have zoned out. What did you say your name was?"
"My name is Edward Cullen." He said though he was smirking at my obvious attraction to him. Ha, he thinks he's so hot. Well, he is, but I wasn't going to let him know it. "oh." Was all I said to him feigning disinterest before turning back to the rest of the family. "Well, It's great to meet you all. I hope we can be friends."
They all nodded their heads in agreement. "So, Bella, you're a vampire, aren't you?" blurted out the large Emmett. Well, that was straight forward.
"Yes, Emmett, I am a vampire. I'm so glad that you all are too. I was worried about if I had a human roommate she would think that I was anorexic." Edward laughed at this. His laugh was heavenly, unlike anything I had ever heard before. I glazed over a little bit before continuing, "So… what is there to do around here?"
Alice suddenly ran up to me and embraced me in a bone-crushing hug. I hugged her back after a second when I realized that she wasn't going to let go. "Let's give you a make-over!!" she screamed in my ear while we were still hugging. Startled, I stepped backwards on my suitcase before falling over to land on my butt. Alice landed on top of me, still holding me in the embrace. Once we hit the floor, she started to laugh. The rest of the family joined in laughing, and eventually, I did too. This family brought out a clumsy part of me, that was for sure.
I slowly stood up, embarrassed. Jasper spoke up, "Alice, darling, she just got here. Maybe we should let her unpack. Plus she doesn't look to keen on the whole make over concept." I smiled thankfully at him.
Alice pouted but agreed. "well Bella, can we at least learn a bit about you? Do you mind if we stay and ask you questions while you unpack?"
I agreed. I couldn't refuse a pouting Alice I learned. For someone so small, she had a lot of personality. We were going to be great friends. Hopefully she wouldn't pry too much; I don't like telling people too much about myself. They always pitied me once they knew my story. They all sat down and I opened up my suitcase to start unpacking.
"Ok, so Bella, why did you decide to come to EHS?" Rosalie asked. I took an instant liking to her, sensing that she was a simple-minded person.
"Well my foster parents actually decided for me to go here. Its probably only temporary, one of them accidentally let our secret slip and had to move elsewhere. They decided that it was best for me to stay here and graduate high school though I doubt that I will last here that long, they normally don't stay away long before coming back and asking that I join them." I shrugged.
The family nodded their heads in understanding. "So, you obviously don't feed on humans. I hope that your father doesn't slip up often." Said Alice, who was peering at Jasper.
"no, no. He slips up quite often but he's getting better. But no one ever gets hurt or killed." I replied with indifference. They seemed surprised by this. Oh, of course they would be curious about how this was, I forgot that they didn't know my gifts. I explained to them that I could bring people back to life and erase their memories. The family looked very impressed when they heard this.
"That's amazing. Is that your gift?" Edward asked intrigued.
"yeah, one of them." I said. "How many do you have?" questioned Edward. I mentally laughed. They were going to freak when I told them. Vampires always stare at me in awe even though the powers are the only thing that makes me interesting.
"Well, I have around 36." All of their eyes widened at my response. Haha I totally wasn't expecting that, I thought sarcastically before finishing the explanation. "Most of them are pretty useless though. I can change the color of my nails if I want, which is completely useless and I can juggle really well. Don't ask me how I figured out that was a power, I went through a juggling period a couple of months ago." Edward cracked a smile at that while Emmett's laughter boomed around us as he pictured me juggling. "I have some nice ones though, I can change my appearance, hide my identity, read minds, teleport, become invisible, and share my gifts with people when I wish to."
Their mouths now hung open. I laughed at their expressions. "You guys can close your mouths now before you swallow a fly," I teased. They all snapped their jaws shut. "So what are your powers? Alice can see the future I already know that but what about the rest of you?"
"Well, I can read minds like you and Jasper can feel what others are feeling and project those feelings. That's pretty much it." Edward mumbled quietly, obviously feeling insignificant compared to my powers. If only he knew why I had all these powers, then he would be happy he wasn't cursed with my powers. I nodded my head, acknowledging his statement.
I reached down into my suitcase and grabbed the rest of my shirts. Pulling them out in a large heap I began to walk over to the dresser. "So Bella, how did you become a vampire?" Edward asked.
I froze mid-step. I stopped breathing. I let my hands clench into fists and drop to my sides, making my shirts fall on the ground. How could I tell them what happened to me? They will just pity me if I tell them. Should I lie to them? What if they found out anyway? Yes, I was going to need to tell them if I was going to live with them for such a long time. I slowly turned around to face the startled vampires before me. I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came out. Everything went black.
